Software Engineer - Radar Hybrid in Burlington, MA

At MatrixSpace, we are building technology that bridges the physical and digital worlds — combining embedded systems, radar sensing, cloud computing, and AI to unlock powerful real-world intelligence. We are seeking a Software Engineer to analyze real-world radar data, prototype new algorithms, and translate insights into robust production software for next-generation sensing systems. In this role, you will use experimental data to understand how the system behaves in the real world, design experiments to measure and explain that behavior, and translate insights into improvements to signal processing and state estimation algorithms. Key Responsibilities: Use real radar data to characterize system performance and translate insights into the tuning, selection, and development of algorithms. Develop and maintainC++ software for radar system components including signal processing, detection, tracking, and control. Prototype and evaluate new algorithms or approaches using data-driven analysis (Python and/or MATLAB), then transition successful ideas into production C++ code. Mature and maintain our data pipeline and design visualization tools. Support integration and testing of radar software in lab and field environments. Required Skills and Experience This position requires working directly or indirectly with the US Government in restricted environments. Candidates must be legally authorized to work in the United States without employer sponsorship and may be required to obtain and maintain a U.S. government security clearance in the future.
